FNM RESULTS —Oct. 11, 2013
FNM RESULTS. This is the first time I took this deck to FNM I finished 14th out of 28. I beat a r/w controlish deck 2-0 was not even a contest. Then second round I played a R/U?B control deck which Game 1: I made him quit on turn 5. Turn 1- Experiment One turn 2 Zameck Guildmage turn 3 Boon Satyr turn 2 and 3 were both countered. turn 4 Corpsejack Menace he had no answer for turn 5 Kalonian Hydra then he quits and i get mana flooded game 2 and mana screwed game 3. Round 3 I faced a W/B control/enchantment deck i destroyed him 2-0. On to round 4 I played a B/U control deck, The first game I had no answer everything i played was countered or destroyed until he used Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver to kill me with my own kalonian hydra. and game 2 I had to mulligan down to 5 and i drew 5 lands in a row and got owned. So i figured out I really need help against full control decks not the half and half ones. Does anyone have any ideas for straight control decks?
with all that trample, Bident of Thassa might help with draw as well

I would take out Mistcutter Hydra and add Kalonian Hydra. B/U/G 1/1 counters works, but i find black green counters more efficient. But yes, 1/1 counters kicks butt!

I've found that Prime Speaker Zegana can be loads of fun with Corpsejack Menace . And you have enough ramp to make her possible. If you do decide to run her, I would recommend only two. Personally, I would take out the Ceratok and both Vorels (who have never really worked for me) and maybe add another Ooze.
